Chapter 73 Trust
Chapter 73 Trust
"It is normal for His Royal Highness Prince Rui to have an attack of poison. The medicinal herbs used in this medicinal bath are extremely potent. The first bath will trigger the poison in his body to attack. But as long as he can get through it, he will recover after a while. If you carry him out now, you will harm him!"
Lin Shuning felt a little annoyed. She had just focused her attention on Bai Qiuye and forgot to tell Chen Zhao that the medicinal properties of the first medicinal bath would trigger the poison.
Otherwise, this misunderstanding would not have occurred.
Inside the house, Chen Zhao heard Lin Shuning's shout and paused, undecided for a moment.
When he first met Lin Shuning, he saw with his own eyes that she detoxified his master. That time on the cruise ship, she performed a miraculous healing operation and brought his master back from the brink of death.
But looking at his master dying in the bathtub, he couldn't help but worry in his heart. If Lin Shuning was really sent by the enemy to deliberately approach his master, and he failed to rescue his master in time, wouldn't he be harming him?
After all, that person was also...
Yue Zhao saw Chen Zhao was hesitant and said angrily, "Chen Zhao, why are you still hesitating? Master Huagu treated the master so many times, and this situation has never happened before. In my opinion, either the third young lady is not good at medicine, or she has ulterior motives and was sent by someone to deliberately murder the master. No matter which one it is, you can no longer trust her!"
"Yes, that's right!" Fu Feng agreed sharply. After that, he sneered at Lin Shuning and walked forward to carry Jiang Yu out of the bathtub.
Lin Shuning was so anxious that he wanted to curse: "If you want him to die, then bring him out and try. The poison has been triggered and it will backfire. If there is no medicinal bath to suppress it, he will die soon!"
These words instantly stunned all the secret guards present.
Fu Feng and Chen Zhao looked at each other and did not move for a while.
Lin Shuning continued to add, each word was powerful: "You don't believe me, I understand, but think about it carefully, if I wanted to harm His Royal Highness Prince Rui, why would I wait until now? If I didn't detoxify him on the boat, he would have died without a doubt. Why would I make a medicinal bath with so many flaws to harm him now, and let myself fall into your hands?
Three incense sticks, give me three incense sticks of time. If His Royal Highness Prince Rui hasn't woken up within three incense sticks, I will let you deal with him as you wish. If he wakes up, I want you to apologize to me."
Chen Zhao's eyes changed slightly, as if he had made up his mind. He let go of Jiang Yu's hand and said, "Fufeng, you guys go out. I'll stay here to guard the master. If the master doesn't wake up within three incense sticks, I'll rescue him immediately."
Seeing Chen Zhao so determined, Fu Feng said nothing more. He gritted his teeth and retreated out, closing the door and lighting three incense sticks at the door.
Lin Shuning didn't say anything else, but just quietly watched the curling white smoke from the burning incense, ignoring the sharp eyes that the secret guards were looking at her with.
In fact, she was not angry at all. After all, Jiang Yu's poison had been so serious over the years that it was understandable that the secret guards loyal to him would be worried and even paranoid.
Besides, she is also responsible for this matter.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the three incense sticks soon burned to the bottom. Fu Feng could no longer sit still, and gnashed his teeth and said, "The three incense sticks have already passed, Miss San, what else do you have to say! What are you waiting for? Hurry up and capture the murderer who murdered the master!"
After he finished speaking, he took the lead in approaching Lin Shuning, and the rest of the secret guards also surrounded him.
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Chen Zhao's stern voice came from inside: "Stop! The master is awake!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the attention of everyone in the yard was immediately drawn over. Through the open door, they could clearly see that Jiang Yu's shoulders and neck were all soaked in water, with a slightly red face.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Jiang Yu frowned and said coldly: "What are you all doing here? Go do what you need to do!"
"Yes, my lord." Fu Feng and Yue Zhao looked at Lin Shuning guiltily and turned to leave.
Lin Shuning shouted coldly: "Stop, I just said that if His Royal Highness Prince Rui doesn't wake up within three incense sticks, then I will let you deal with him. If His Royal Highness Prince Rui wakes up, you will apologize for wrongly accusing me!"
Jiang Yu had just woken up and had no idea that such a thing had happened during the time he was unconscious. His eyes, as cold as a sharp blade, fell on Chen Zhao, leaving a chill in his throat.
Chen Zhao's body trembled, and he quickly knelt on one knee and explained: "Master, we are worried about you, so we misunderstood the Third Miss. Please forgive us, Master."
"What's the use of my forgiveness?" Jiang Yu's voice was cold and intimidating: "Everyone, go and apologize to the Third Miss!"
"Yes," Chen Zhao agreed, walked out of the house, and bowed respectfully, "Miss Third, we wronged you today. Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against us."
He spoke sincerely, and after he finished speaking, he did not forget to glance at Fufeng, Yuezhao and the other secret guards.
"Miss Third, we misunderstood. We're sorry!" Fu Feng and Yue Zhao immediately knelt on one knee, lowered their heads and said in unison.
"Sorry, Third Miss." The other secret guards also knelt down.
"Well," Lin Shuning responded, "Everyone, get up. This matter is not entirely your fault. I should have made it clear in advance when I gave the medicine to His Royal Highness Prince Rui, but I hope this kind of thing will not happen again. What I need is your 100% trust."
Lin Shuning glanced at them, walked into the house with a cold face, and closed the door.
Chen Zhao was locked outside the door and sighed deeply: "We have really made a big mistake this time. We will suffer the consequences in the next few days."
Fu Feng scratched his head, looking puzzled: "Chen Zhao, what do you mean by this? Didn't the Third Miss forgive us?"
Chen Zhao sneered and knocked his head hard: "Miss San has forgiven us, but that doesn't mean the master has forgiven us too. Haven't you noticed that the master has been different these days?"
"What's the difference?" Fu Feng and Yue Zhao asked in unison, looking at each other in confusion.
"Play the piano to the cow!"
Looking at the confused looks on the faces of the two people in front of him, Chen Zhao left in anger.
At this time, Lin Shuning had already walked into the inner room. The room was filled with hot air. In the misty smoke, Jiang Yu was not wearing anything on his upper body.
Different from what I saw through the hazy screen that day, at this moment his black hair was casually scattered in front of him, his eyebrows were moisturized, and his eyes looked even deeper, his naked body was moist and smooth, and his strong muscles were faintly visible. From time to time, water droplets dripped along his delicate jawline to his collarbone, and rolled down his tight chest. Under the golden mottled light and shadow, he looked like flowing crystal honey.
The beauty was like smoke, spreading throughout the house, and the huge space seemed a bit cramped for a moment.
